“Be carefree – Be Mad – Be a little bit bad. It’s the unknown around the corner that turns my wheel.”
Starting in November of 1962 at the age of 22, Heinz rode out of his town on a 3-speed bicycle with a general plan to see the world. He would ultimately travel over 600,000km by #bicycle in a journey spanning nearly 50 years and covering enough distance to #circumnavigate the world 15 times around.
